LS/VTEC Turns over but won't start
I have a 95 civic ex with an LS/Vtec swap.
Eagle Rods and Pistons pro 3 cams skunk spring and retainers wallbro fuel pump 6puk clutch aluminum rad b18 block b16 head was getting 11:1 compression, have not checked compression again. it was up and running fine. one day i was changing out the motor mounts and after i was done the car would not start. it cranks over and if i rev the gas the engine will stay on as long as i rev the gas. if i do not rev the gas the car turns over and dies immediatly. I changed the fuel filter and leaking fuel line figured that was the problem. I changed the spark plugs and read out the the spark plug wires. The spark plugs were not flooded with gas. and were gapped to .040. B&M fuel pressure gauge reads 37 psi at the fuel filter which is stock fuel pressure. i completely resoldered the main relay. i do not think it is the ignition switch. i sprayed out the map sensor with cleaner, but i have not read it out yet. the IAC was discovered to be unplugged but plugging it in didnt help. next i guess would be tps sensor or the computer itself or a whole new distributor. at this point i think its an air problem maybe not enough fuel pressure im not sure. i did notice an o2 sensor wire disconnected but i dont think thats it but i will replace it. i am a long time lurker and first time poster of this forum, and yes i did use the search button. |

Missing any grounds?

Re: LS/VTEC Turns over but won't start
ill keep checking for grounds, i didnt see any blown fuses but i have to go through the fuses under the dash yet.
update........ i changed the idle air control valve. ignition coil and rotor where replaced. the distributor cap i had was corroded but i have to go get one that fits. i bought the wrong cap. i did try cleaning the cap however. installed new pcv valve. i hate throwing parts at the problem but honestly i would have gone through and changed all this stuff anyways. with exception to the IACV. I did get it at a discounted price. |
